Maps and Mazes

Arrange everyday a map to the mind Memories and knowledge are some things to find But love, dreams, and hope will not be a part They aren’t part of the mind They are deep in the heart This maze that is traveled and somehow passed through As life’s thread unravels with the don’ts and the dos Unfolds as it should though in darkness we’re blind Arrange everyday a map to the mind Each chamber uncertain and corridor apart Are not part of the mind but part of the heart If there is something blocking the way to the end The walls are rock solid and the bars do not bend Don’t despair and give up with the obstacle you find Use the memory and knowledge  And the map of the mind But if still a mystery and it still gets you down Do not cower in shadows wearing tears or a frown Don’t go back to the beginning or return to the start Muster the strength to finish From the depths of the heart 1/2000
